Martin Reway will not be able to attend Montreal's training camp because of a virus.

He is hospitalized in Slovakia and Canadiens' team doctors are monitoring his situation. Reway might have been in contention for a roster spot with the big club this year, but now his health is the main concern. Hopefully, he recovers quickly from whatever is ailing him. Sep 8 - 2:20 PM

"We are very pleased to have reached an agreement with Martin Reway. A young forward with tremendous offensive skills, Martin has the potential to become a very good player," said GM Marc Bergevin. "He enjoyed success during his two seasons in North America with the QMJHL's Gatineau Olympiques before turning professional in Europe and playing in the Czech Republic and Switzerland the past two years." In 2015-16, he played for Fribourg-Gotteron in the Swiss National League A, where he produced eight goals and 21 points in 19 games, as well as Sparta Praha of the Czech Extraliga, where he had five goals and 15 points in 14 contests. Reway, who was chosen in the fourth round of the 2013 NHL Draft by Montreal, will try to earn a roster spot at training camp next season. May 18 - 12:25 PM

Tomas Plekanec is expected to move to the top line following injuries to Alex Galchenyuk and David Desharnais.

Plekanec scored a goal for just the second time this season Tuesday night, which ended a 13-game drought. He also added an assist in Montreal's 3-2 overtime loss to St. Louis. The Canadiens will be hoping for more production like that from Plekanec now because they are hurting badly down the middle. It was announced Wednesday that Galchenyuk and Desharnais would miss six to eight weeks.

He also recorded five shots in the match. Coach Michel Therrien confirmed a report that Pacioretty played through a microfracture in his foot during November. He is better now though and his production has gone up recently.

Phillip Danault scored a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the New Jersey Devils.

Not bad for a guy who was a game time decision because of an illness. The Canadiens put together an impressive performance considering it was their first game back from a long road trip. They were also without Alex Galchenyuk and David Desharnais tonight. In their absence, Danault stepped up. He opened the scoring by tipping in a Nathan Beaulieu shot in the first period and he also assisted on Artturi Lehkonen's second period goal. Danault has six goals and five assists in 27 games this season. He doesn't have any value in standard leagues.

Artturi Lehkonen scored the only goal for the Canadiens in a 2-1 loss to the San Jose Sharks on Friday.

Lehkonen's goal came with under two minutes to play but the Habs couldn't muster up anything else in the dying moments of the game. They have now only managed a late goal in consecutive games, and will need to find ways to score in a hurry before the end of their west coast road trip. The goal marks the first point Lehkonen has recorded in his last nine games played and he currently sits at four points in 15 games played this season. We wouldn't recommend adding him at the moment.

Through the first 34 games of his NHL career, Carr has posted just seven goals and 11 points. Which includes two points in 11 games this season. It doesn't seem as though he's found his way with the big boys just yet.

Torrey Mitchell scored a pair of goals in Montreal's 5-2 win over New Jersey on Thursday night.

He is being tasked with centering Montreal's second line between Brendan Gallagher and Paul Byron. Mitchell has seven goals and nine points in 27 games this season. He had gone 12 straight contests without a point prior to Thursday's match and he hadn't scored a goal since Nov. 2 versus Vancouver.

Shea Weber notched a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to Ottawa.

He scored his league-leading seventh power-play marker of the season and picked up a helper on Alex Galchenyuk's man-advantage tally during the third period. Weber has produced 10 of his 17 points this season on the power play.

Jeff Petry scored a goal and an assist in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes.

Petry opened the scoring at the 14:19 mark of the second period. He also helped set up Andrew Shaw's goal that cut Carolina's lead to 3-2 with 4:31 remaining in the game. Petry has three goals and six assists in 17 games this season.

Carey Price stopped 19 of 21 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the New Jersey Devils.

The interesting part of this game came late in the first period when Devils forward Kyle Palmieri lost an edge and crashed into Price. The Canadiens goalie was furious with Palmieri. Price punched Palmieri with his blocker once in the head and two more times in the body. The Habs netminder picked up four minutes for roughing on the play, while Palmieri got two minutes for interference. It's important to remember that Price has dealt with his share of injuries in the last few seasons. The 29-year-old has a 15-3-1 record with a 1.83 goals-against-average and a .940 save percentage. He's the best fantasy option at his position.

Al Montoya blew a late 2-0 lead, eventually falling 3-2 to the Blues in overtime on Tuesday.

Montoya stopped 28 of 31 shots, including all eight during the penalty kill. Ultimately, he got saddled with just one of the two standings points he was supposed to acquire. His record falls to 3-3-2 with a .903 save percentage and 25 goals against.
